There has loag-exs.ed q COM
plant that assessments ofproperty
for taxation are unequal. The
Austin Call suggests that the surest
way for Texas to secure a fair, Just
and impartial assessment is to
make the office of assessor ap-
pointive. The incumbent would
then be under neither personal
nor political obligations to any of
his constituents. 1t would per-
haps be better plan for counties
and cities to elect or appoint a
board of appraisers who should 60
carefully over the assessors lists
and appraise the value of all real
property. 1t is well known fact
the small property owners nearly
always return their property to the
assessors ut something near its
true value, while the larger proper
ty owners return theirs at the very
lowest figures they can induce the
assessor to accept. This is the
case throughout the state Bren-
ham Banner.

s'You want to know about gloves?"

A pretty saleswoman leaned across the
counter of one of the leading up town glove
emporiums and smiled into the face of a
youthful news gatherer If he had never
taken the slightest interest in pair OF gloves
before he certainly did now, and the oblig-
ing young woman kindly continued:
"These light gray and mastic gloves with
seams Tapped and finished about the wrist
with strip of black leather and several rows
of black stitching are the newest styles out,
and are quite the proper thing for a ladies'
street dress.
"No; they are not exactly suitable fol
evening wear. Gloves for that she should
have made of undressed kid, and the most
fashionable color is shade of light tan.
But the proper fad is to have slippers made
out of a similar material and of the exact
color. These should be worn with suede
colored silk stockings if you know what
those are"
The reporter did not betray his ignorance
however keen1y he may have regretted it.
tsThere are other fashions in ladies' stree
gloves" continued the young woman; "thes
four button gloves with embroidery on thu
back in black or sef-colored stitching art
very correct and extremely popular. You
notice the size OF the buttons 1ney arr

They are the proper thing. The stitching Ii

believe that the claimant for the Itch

other than the genuine Sir Roger.
There were many things brought out
in the almost fearful cross-examinati alton
inquisition through which he passed in SO
many varied forms OF surveillance,
which seemed to point Enthusiastically
to the genuineness of his claim, and there
felt and expressed. Added to his most adj
yenturous career before the trial, it has been
scarcely less SO since his defeat. He has met
with many misfortunes, but none SO serious
ing communication, which happily was
arrested in the manner which he describes.
It will be observed by his signature that he
still holds on to the peculiarities OF writing
his name which called for good deal OF
questioning during the trial, and, as
It is for reasons best known to himself
that he does SO, there is no reason
for criticising it. One OF the strong
traits which won him so many friends and
admirers was the pertinacity and good sense
with which he held on to what he considered
right and just and there is clear manltes-

THE VICTIM OF AN ADVENTURES.
A Humiliating story Told by an Eng
IIah BANKRUPT.

LONDON, Nov 30.-William Copeland
Borlase, formerly member of Parliament for
the St. Austell division of Cornwall and under
secretary of the local government board. was
examined to-day in the bankruptcy court.
His liabilities amount to e42, 653 and assets
e6, 81. He traced part of his embarrass-
ment to his relations with his mistress, Nine.
de Quiros, whom he allowed a fixed income
of e25 week. At first the payments were
made willingly, but subsequently the money
was extorted from him, the woman following
him to France, Spain and finally to Wales
where he was forced to obtain police protec-
ton against her and her male companion.
The last $500 he gave her was paid in Ira
falgar Square. She was passing in a cab
when she saw him and stopping the cab made
him get in and go with her to a bank and
get the money. She accused him of deeds
he had never committed and on one occasion
at 2 o'clock in the morning forced her way
into his wife's bedroom and told her relations
with Mr.. Borlase. Since then his life has
been made misery. Although he owed her
nothing she pretended to have claims against
him. At this point the examination was
adjourned. The case is exciting much inter
est,
